Mazda Motor will provide electricity generated from renewable sources for two all-star games organized by the Nippon Professional Baseball Association (NPB) in Japan. Eco-friendly green electricity will be used for the games under the Green Power Certification System. Mazda will indirectly provide green electricity to illuminate the nighttime all-star 2010 games by purchasing a “Green Power Certificate” for 12,000 kilowatt hours. Using green power for the games is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 6.6 metric tons.

The first green powered 2010 Mazda all-star game will be played at the Fukuoka Yahoo! Japan Dome on July 23. The illumination for the second game, a night game to be held at the Hard Off Eco Stadium Niigata on July 24, will also be powered by green energy sources.
